Re: New levels....

Maybe ranks based on aircraft? (Yes, I'm a wingnut)

Nrebies can be Piper Cub, then Cessna, then LeerJet, then Airbus, etc...
Escalating in size of the aircraft, and number of engines.

I like this but I'd follow a time line. Start with the Wright brothers moving though WW1 and WW2 and ending in the jet age.

or

Go by size, small single seater and end up in a B-52. Similar to Azguy but with millitary aircraft.

Re: New levels....

good idea but not specific enough to card modeling... if we all modeled planes I would go for it as an idea

hrmmmm now if we had a free model of each level that would be cool as each level is attained

Re: New levels....

What about scale?

New menbers would be 1/144

Old hands 1/12.

Everyone else in the middle, plenty sizes for as many levels as your'd like.

The free model is a good idea. make the free model match the scale.

Re: New levels....

The levels would be measured in scale but the free model could be anything as long as it matched the scale.

It would be great if scales could be divided between the designers so they had one each and then they designed an ecardmodels exclusive which would be donated free to the store.

You would only get the free model when you reached the appropriate level.
